On her birthday, here are 3 instances when she surprised everyone with her statements:

1) Her Dig at Nepotism

Ananya Panday was part of a discussion that took place around the burning topic of nepotism back in 2019 at an actor's roundtable.
She added her own opinions to it when she said, "I have always wanted to be an actor. Just because my dad has been an actor, I will never say no to an opportunity to act."

Adding further, she said, "My dad has never been in a Dharma film he never went on Koffee With Karan. So it's not as easy as people say. Everyone has their own journey and their own struggle."

Her comment got all kinds of responses from audiences, with some being kind and empathetic while others resorting to trolling.
